I am new to the area and of course, I need a hair salon. A co-worker suggested I go to Focal Point because she loves it there so I took a look first at Yelp and then their website.
Lauren is passionate about blonde hair so I scheduled an appt with her. Now, yes, I know it's a little crazy to go straight color with someone you don't know, but the reviews were solid and I had a good feeling so I made an appt with Lauren. It was last night and....survey says?
This place is fantastic!
Lauren is great and conducted an initial consult with me. We talked about the look I was going for and how to achieve it and what would look best. She was easy to talk with and immediately made me feel at ease. When she went to mix the color, I had no concerns about the end results.
After quickly getting the color on, it processed in no time flat. I was taken back to the lather lounge to rinse and nearly fell asleep because it was so relaxing. Lauren did a quick trim and began blowdrying. As soon as I saw the color, my eyes turned to giant plates. It was beautiful. I've had a couple of great stylist before, but Lauren raised the bar to levels i didn't think possible. My hair looked stunning and I felt like a new person.
I strongly recommend Focal Point salon and while I think Lauren is awesome, I was able to watch another stylist at work while there and she was equally impressive. I don't think you can go wrong there. Everyone seems friendly and knowledgeable.
Check them out...you will not be disappointed.
*I gave a rating of 4 stars because I've only been there once and usually reserve 5 starts for consistent excellence...when I return in October for my next appt, I am sure I will amend this to a 5 star rating*
